By now I’m sure you’ve heard the fantastic song “Friday” by Rebecca Black, especially since we linked it a few days ago. I’ve become strangely obsessed with it. If you haven’t seen it, I recommend you watch it now:
In honor of Ms Black, and since today is Friday, Friday, our post is a little ditty written in the same style and sung to the same tune. Please sing as you read. For a more authentic sound, it will help if you have autotune.
Seven PM making drinks in the evening
Gotta make them, gotta post our blog
Gotta have a glass, gotta have alcohol
Mixin’ everything, my mouth is waiting
So thirsty ‘cause it needs a drink

| Today is Quaker's Cocktail |
Sadly it must end, but I would guess that we will have more musical blogs, especially on days I can’t think of other gimmicks.
We should probably mention that we both enjoyed the Quaker’s Cocktail. In addition to the aforementioned rum, brandy, and lemon juice it also contains raspberry syrup. Mrs. Bottle doesn’t like raspberry but she didn’t think the drink had an overwhelming raspberry flavor. She thought the lemon juice made it a little tart, but I thought the syrup provided the right amount of sweetness. At any rate, this drink was one of the better ones we have tried lately, and it also packs a bit of a punch at 26% alcohol. We shouldn’t have been surprised, because everyone knows that Quakers are party machines.
